#Gouvernement très déçu de l'intelligence du vivre ensemble
Aucun scandale n'est à déplorer
Même pas ****** Un********** signalement 🙃
Les #cathos #musulmans #protestants #juifs #athées et #boudhistes et tous les #autres se sont réunis tous dans un même lieu de la république laïque qu'on appelle l'école
Ils se sont respectés dans leur mixité, leur différence, leur espoir, leur paroles
Et ils emmerdent ce gouvernement
Enfin du moins je l'espère 😅

How blasphemy laws haunt Pakistan’s financially oppressed Christians

Christians and other religious minorities make up a mere 4% of Pakistan’s population, but they account for about half of blasphemy charges.

AI #Religion? Hundreds attend #church service at a convention of #Protestants generated by #ChatGPT.

The artificial intelligence #chatbot asked believers in a fully packed #Lutheran church to rise from the pews and praise the Lord then commenced to preach.

The avatar, personified as a bearded Black man on a huge screen above the altar, had an expressionless face and monotonous voice. Its use of platitudes in deadpan voice that drew some laughter as it preached.

(1)#Verhaaltje

Mijn oma ging na het overlijden van mijn opa naar een #bejaardentehuis, 74 jaar oud, waar zij nog 11 jaar woonde. Bezoekjes aan haar waren soms #hilarisch.

Oma was zéér #katholiek, dus toen mijn broer kwam vertellen dat hij een #protestants vriendinnetje had kreeg hij een #preek.

Oma had al vroeg een kleuren TV en die stond bovenop een koelkastje in haar woonkamer in het #bejaardenhuis. Als dat koelkastje aansloeg, viel de TV uit. Oma kende de remedie: . dan zet je....(2)

First the #Catholics, then the #Protestants and now this 😤
Are there any untainted religions? Bizarre!

"The #DalaiLama has apologized for kissing a young boy on the lips and asking him to "suck my tongue" after a video of the incident sparked outrage on #SocialMedia.

The 87-year-old #Buddhist priest "regrets the incident" and wishes to apologize to "the boy and his family, as well as his many friends across the world, for the hurt his words may have caused"

In Belfast, the walls between Catholics and Protestants still stand.

Built at the beginning of the civil war, the separations between communities have survived after the Good Friday Agreement treaty that brought peace to Northern Ireland, 25 years ago today.

The #Reformation was nothing more than a period of #Deconstruction (still ongoing for many denominations). Why are #evangelical #protestants so scared of it? Scared that we'll find YOU doing something bad too? #theology #christianity #church

Has anyone done research on the broad theological underpinnings of Protestant anti-urbanism? I have specific historical details for the lecture I am writing, but the professor wants an overview of the theology as well but I am not a theologian so I am at a loss as to what to search for. Any suggestions will be much appreciated. #histodons #ReligiousStudies #theology #AntiUrbanism #Protestants @histodons

I've seen a recent trend from certain conservative / aggressively online #Catholics to make memes about Protestants being triggered by overtly #Catholic phrases being part of everyday #English vernacular (ex. Rest in Peace, Hail Mary).

I'm going to speak on behalf of all #Protestants: We're not & don't actually care.

#JustSaying

#Blackchurches, mainline #Protestants, #evangelicals, and #Catholics contributed to Franklin D. #Roosevelt's #NewDeal coalition.[313] During the New Deal era, President Roosevelt appealed to notions of #Christian charity.[314] In explaining his philosophy, he said: "I am a Christian and a Democrat".[314]

Today's #SociologyOfReligion reflection:

In the USA, we have a #president who is a serious #RomanCatholic. This is not a very big deal, in comparison to all the fuss in the 1960 election, when many #Protestants had their knickers in a twist. They feared that John Kennedy would take orders from the #pope.

What are your thoughts about this? I have a hypothesis...

The #EasternOrthodox Churches never adopted the Gregorian calendar (except in #Finland). While Orthodox-majority countries use the Gregorian calendar for civil purposes, many still use the #JulianCalendar for religious purposes. You have probably heard about #UkrainianRefugees celebrating #Easter and #Christmas on different dates to those of #Catholics and #Protestants; this is because the Ukrainian Orthodox Church still uses the Julian Calendar (for now).

31 Dec 1384: d. John Wyclif theologian days after a stroke at the elevation of the Host. He was later claimed as proto-reformer by 16th century #English #Protestants #otd (BM)

One of my favorite historical religious events is the #Beeldenstorm aka the #IconoclasticFury.

After the #printingpress allowed mass distribution of the #Bible in common language, #tracts and religious #polemics became common. In the mid #16thCentury #Protestants rose up against all the pervasive #Catholic #idolatry and church wealth. They stormed churches throughout the #HolyRomanEmpire, tearing down idols.

I came across this mention of a #phoenix in the #Bible - well, technically it's extrabibilcal (outside the canon) for #Protestants, but the #Coptic church includes it - so, precedent exists!

From I Clement 25:
Let us consider that wonderful sign [of the resurrection] which takes place in Eastern lands, that is, in Arabia and the countries round about. There is a certain bird which is called a phoenix. This is the only one of its kind, and lives five hundred years."

Why You Should Be Worried About the Split in the #Methodist Church... #Protestants are splitting up over #LGBTQ issues. In the 1840s, it was #slavery that opened a rift.

Pleased and proud to announce the publication of a great new book on the #Reformation, "Passionate Peace: Emotions and Religious Coexistence in Later Sixteenth-Century Augsburg," by Sean Dunwoody. The author argues that the #Protestants and #Catholics of sixteenth-century Augsburg learned to live together by developing “emotional practices” that kept conflict over religion manageable.

Been really enjoying lectures by Prof Alec Ryrie - unfortunately YouTube does not queue them up in sequence.

https://youtu.be/CtvOhPjZnZ8 is the first of a recent series on the English Reformation. See also his talks on atheism, martyrs, etc.

See also https://www.gresham.ac.uk/speakers/professor-alec-ryrie

Really recommended.

Curious whether @PadreSJ has come across him too.
